It has mono saturated fatty acids? Great!
Hi, everybody! My name is Alisha and
this is Top Words. Today’s topic is
10 Foods to Make You Live Longer.
So let’s talk about it!
Avocado
Avocado is delicious
It’s green, it’s about this big, you cut
it and you eat it, and it’s awesome.
Avocados actually contain more potassium
than bananas.
You can use avocado to make a guacamole,
for example, which is a very popular dish,
you can put it in salads, which is
something I like to do, check out

loves avocado!
Banana
you peel a banana from the top, you take
the stem thing, just… I actually really
truly, I ate a banana in a smoothie this
morning and it was delicious! That’s a
popular way to eat bananas.
Blueberry
A berry, which is blue.
blueberries are really really good at
helping burn fat.
You could use them in a desert as well,
alternatively. I’ve seen recipes, or you
bake blueberries into things like
muffins, for example. If you want to
include blueberries in something else,
like I just talked about muffins,
we say “baked into something something”.
So for example,
I’m going to bake blueberries into my muffins later.
Fish
I’m all about the fish! Let’s talk about
you and me and fish! So fish are high in
omega-3 fatty acids, so it’s a very very
popular health food.
They are rich in good fats.
They also have a lot of protein in them,
and additionally, they’re delicious!
Garlic
Oh garlic is very important, if you’re very worried about
vampires. Haha! Vampires on the medical
site! Garlic is delicious, garlic is used
in a lot of different foods, you can
slice garlic or you can make it even
smaller which is “to mince garlic”. So it’s
these tiny tiny little pieces that are
cut even further from a sliced
piece that’s called to mince.
Green tea
Green tea is excellent! Green
tea is so delicious, one of the effects
of green tea is supposedly to help
protect cells in your body from damage,
and thereby reducing the effects of
aging and breaking down in the body.
It’s a fairly healthy way to get
caffeine, if you’re a caffeine drinker.
Macadamia nut
Next is macadamia nut,
macadamia nuts are delicious, i feel that
they are often used in Hawaiian cuisine
a lot.
We have the noun “a snack”,
something that you can eat
just between meals if you like, but we
also can use it as a verb, to snack on…
So I like to snack on macadamia nuts
after lunch, for example.
Oatmeal
Oatmeal is the next
food on our list, there are a lot of
different kinds of oatmeal, actually. It’s
rich in fiber, fiber is known for helping
food pass through the digestive
system more smoothly. So oatmeal can be
beneficial for that. A lot of people like
to eat oatmeal for breakfast in the
morning, you can eat it hot or you can
eat it cold, whatever you like to do.
My boss also eats just plain oatmeal and water for lunch.
Oatmeal is very popular with raisins as
well, the two seem to complement each other nicely.
Red wine
So the next word, the next drink
on this list, is red wine.
Yes it’s an alcohol, red wine is said to
be beneficial to your health because it
is high in antioxidants.
So antioxidants protect the lining of
blood vessels and your heart, so
ingesting moderate amount of red wine is
said to be said to be good for you, or
can have positive effects on the body.
I drink red wine when I’m out with my
friends usually. Though maybe sometimes I
have a glass at home.
Tofu
It’s a really popular source of protein for people who are vegetarians
or vegans, and i’m, like, super into tofu.
Like the last week and a half
I’ve been eating so much tofu. I’m loving
it! Usually if you buy tofu it comes in
it comes in the
a package and there’s water inside it to
keep the tofu moist until you’re about
to cook it.
So you have to drain the water from the
tofu, and usually i wrap mine in paper
towels, and then put a heavy
bowl on top of it to squeeze out the
excess moisture before I use it.
That’s the end of 10 foods that will
help you to live longer.
